In February 2020, coffins had to be taken out of Lombardy, Italy on military trucks because the region was unable to deal with the sheer number of people dying from COVID-19. Medical staff described how Italy’s wealthiest region resembled a “world war” scenario amidst the pandemic: patients flocked to public hospitals, healthcare frontline workers were left unprotected in war-like triages, and funerals took place without the bereaved. A year later, Lombardy’s case fatality rate was the highest in Italy (5.7%), more than doubling the national fatality rate (2.4%) and that of the neighbouring Veneto region (3.0%).
